HEALTHY FOOD CHOICES & EATING HABITS FOR PEOPLE WITH DIADETES

Foods that are high in fiber, protein, and healthy fats, and low in sugar, are generally considered to be good choices for people with diabetes. Examples include: 

• Leafy green vegetables
• Berries
• Nuts and seeds
• Fish and seafood
• Legumes (e.g. beans and lentils)
• Whole grains (e.g. quinoa, oatmeal)
• Eggs
• Lean meats (e.g. chicken, turkey)
• Non-starchy vegetables (e.g. broccoli, cauliflower)

It's also important for people with diabetes to pay attention to portion sizes and to spread their meals and snacks evenly throughout the day. This can help to keep blood sugar levels stable and prevent large fluctuations.
